Plugins with gcc?

I'm coming from Windows environment and want to write an application
for Linux that needs a plugin. I'd like to use gcc.
Being new to RB-plugins and browsing around I found most referrals
being "Get the SDK".
Resting assured that this was The Advise, I downloaded it and began
with the Read Me.txt and followed the instructions.
Not being interested in CodeWarrior for now, I opened the
Documentation folder and, as instructed, began with the
'plugin-intro.html'

That page begins with a link: 'Plug-In SDK -- the official Software
Development Kit from REAL Software'. - That link is dead.

Oh well.., skipping a few lines down to
'Writing Plug-Ins'. It begins:
'To write a REALbasic plug-in, you will need the CodeWarrior
development environment....Use of Apple's Project Builder (or gcc)
environment is not possible, because...'
Bother! Apparantly no need to read any further.
- Or?
At least it is a very discouraging intro.

It seems like the SDK has not been relly revieved recently, with the
eyes of Windows/Linux starter, to achieve the high class of the other
RB-documentation.

Is there anyplace a 'walk-through' or HOWTO, or any structured
guidance, to make a C 'Hello, world' Linux gcc RB-plugin (for the
RB2006)?
Maybe by someone who attended the conference 'Introduction to Creating
Plugins Using GCC', speaker Jon Johnson. Or maybe by himself?

Any rumors about a reviewed SDK for the upcoming R2?

Thanks
